It's maddening how much the US hates black people at every level. We cultivated race-pseudoscience and colorist theology to secure support for and ignorance of white supremacism, and we have never even begun to address what has followed. We address the very worst symptoms of our implicitly racist institutions operated by explicitly racist people only when revolution looks like a real threat, and then we always double back to affirm that we never had that bad of a racism problem because we eventually did the bare minimum that we were forced to do
